应景，也发一个syllabus与大家共享

南瓜同学很用功，整理出来这么个系列，介绍自己的心水课程的syllabus（话说你最近在我这里的出镜率是相当的高啊……）
http://www.douban.com/note/214381847/?start=0&post=ok#last
响应一下，也贴一份对我影响很深的课程的syllabus出来。太长，我又懒，就不翻译了。有兴趣的同学看着好玩吧。
是历史系研究生的课程，无意中看到这份syllabus，觉得太有意思了，于是跑去旁听。结果这门课是我目前在UT上过感觉最受益的一门。陈利教授的课上得非常好，虽然是seminar的形式以课堂讨论为主，但是他对于阅读材料的背景、学者间的对话互动、学术流派的演变发展等等都给出足够的信息，根据学生的问题随时做出简洁明确的答复引导，把课堂讨论提升到新高度。
第五周讲性别，第十周讲印刷文化和书籍的历史，应该是南瓜同学比较感兴趣的话题。
HIS1673H-S, Critical Historiography of Late Imperial and Modern China
Instructor: Professor Li Chen
Course Description and Objectives:
      This course introduces students to a host of important topics concerning later imperial and modern Chinese history. It covers major issues and debates related to history and theory, Orientalism and postcolonial theories, gender studies, urban studies, civil society and public sphere, print culture, history of emotions, nationalism, material culture and everyday life, literary history, subaltern studies, and globalization. Mindful of the traditional approaches, these topics will be discussed through comparative and global perspectives and through the lens of more recent historiographic theories and debates. All the readings are selected to reflect both the cutting-edge scholarship on the topics and the important methodological questions at issue. Students will be asked to write six reaction papers (3 pages long). Students can opt to write and present a substantive research paper on a topic of Chinese history with the instructor’s approval.
